It's like a beatiful stallion in the wind

This story is an intriguing story of a man who cheats on his wife and has an illegitimate child. His wife journeys to Asia to see his son. This story is as beautiful as a pearl(no pun intended) It describes the beauty of Asia and America. I would rather cuddle up with this book than eat cheesecake any day.

One of the best books I have ever read

This is Ms. Buck at her best. This is the story of a man's struggle to deal with his illegitimate son,a son he never knew existed, and this son's struggle to not only deal with his new family, but a whole new world. This story touches the reader in the very best way.
